I am trying to do something which I think SHOULD be simple, but I cannot get it to work. I have a Cisco Linksys box (4 port and a WAN port) that is actually being used as a repeater. My HOME subnet is 192.168.50.0/24.
I have a lab setup of a bunch of Cisco gear to do CCIE labs on. I had all of this on my 50.0 network but the switches were acting up and causing any DHCP device to have a dupe IP for whatever reason. Rather than trying to figure out what is causing the issue, I figure to put the port that they connect to on the Linksys (Port 1) in a separate VLAN, give it it's own /24 (192.168.51.0) and have them talk to each other.
I went to Setup -> VLANs and put port 1 in VLAN 2.
I then went to Setup -> Networking and set VLAN2 as unbridged and gave it the 192.168.51.1 address as a /24. All devices in this network will be static so I don't need DHCP.
I am not good with command line on these guys so I put 2 ACCEPT lines in for the firewall but I now cannot access my linksys at the moment so I can't even copy and paste it in here.

More or less I have the same problem. As soon as I change anything in the VLAN-table (and apply the changes) in the interface, the router stops reacting at all and I have to reset it to defaults.
